16 Of Olivia Culpo's Most Relatable Instagrams

by Rosie Narasaki

Tthe former Miss Universe may be an insanely beautiful, otherworldly pageant queen, but that doesn't mean she doesn't Instagram just like the rest of us. Nope, Olivia Culpo loves Instagram just as much as we all do — now, granted, her feed is filled with quite a few more magazine editorials and star-studded fancy parties, but she's still proven herself to be quite the relatable young starlet over the social media site.

Most famous for taking home the Miss Universe crown back in 2012 (as well as the respective Miss USA and Miss Rhode Island crowns), Culpo has been making headlines most recently as a judge in this year's competition (yes, the same one where Steve Harvey flubbed up the winner and the first runner-up). She was the first Miss USA to win Miss Universe since 1997, and this year, she returned to the competition with as much beauty and grace as you'd expect.

Nowadays, you might recognize her from her work as an actress and model — she appeared in The Other Woman, as well as quite a few ads and magazine spreads. Oh, and if you're into celebrity gossip, you might also recall her as the former girlfriend of Nick Jonas — the two reportedly dated for two years before calling it quits. Suffice it to say, she's quite the fabulous lady — but as her Instagram account demonstrates, she's perfectly capable of being an ultra-relatable beauty queen. Let's take a look at her most relatable snaps!
